A real-world example

Which accounts that recently purchased crypto will file a fiat chargeback in the next 14 days?

Scammers buy crypto with bank accounts, transfer crypto to self-custody wallets, then dispute the fiat charge. The bank reverses fiat while crypto is gone forever. This exploits the fundamental asymmetry between reversible fiat and irreversible crypto. Losses exceed $2M+ per quarter at mid-size neobanks.

How KumoRFM solves this

Graph-powered fraud intelligence

Kumo’s backward time window filters to accounts with recent crypto purchases, then predicts fiat disputes. It sees the cross-domain pattern: Account A001 bought $5,200 on Coinbase, transferred to self-custody within hours, and is now likely to dispute the fiat charge. Rules that look at fiat-only or crypto-only data miss this cross-rail pattern.
